You’ll Fall in Love with This Scrumptious Blooming Apples Recipe

Personally, my first experience eating a “blooming” anything was the blooming onion at Chili’s and it was one of the greatest appetizers that I could remember. I couldn’t stop pulling onion petals one after another and plunging them into the spicy dips that accompanied the appetizer. Now just think how great that would be with sweet fruit. A recipe for blooming apples from The Gunny Sack is something I just HAD to try and it did not disappoint.

Finish it off with a delicious scoop of vanilla ice cream, drizzled caramel, and a little sprinkling of cinnamon and you have a dessert that will knock your socks off.
